Semua Bab Too Late, Ex-husband : Bab 81 - Bab 90

…At CJ Group. Clyde sat across his desk, staring at the same document on the computer’s screen for hours.The words weren't written in a foreign language.They were basic and simple, with the document explaining the collaboration terms between the CJ Group and a construction company.Yet, he couldn't understand anything.The more he tried to grasp the meanings, the more his attention swayed.Clyde finally gave up. He closed the document and supported his forehead with both hands, his mind wandering to the source of his distraction. It had been three days already. She neither spoke with him nor paid him attention.She was literally running from him. Could he continue living this way?How was Clyde gonna get his wish fulfilled if they kept on living like this?Violet was probably mad at him due to what happened when she was drunk. Well, he didn't make any advances at her, and she'd been the one who jumped at him first.Yet, he had a feeling that her anger was due to something els

…Crawford Mansion.“Mummy, have you seen this?”“This is so beautiful, Mummy… Can I try it on?”“Oh, this one looks great! Mummy, do you think Daddy spent a lot of money on it!?”Of course!He must have spent millions.A simple school bag looked like a magical device out of a fairytale. With these hundreds of school materials, how was Violet going to find a space to put the things she bought?“You know what? I kind of think reuniting Mimi with her Daddy is a good thing.” Freya sat beside her on the mini couch. They had to share the small couch because even the bed was filled up with gifts. Mimi's room was literally jam-packed, and there wasn't a little space to move.“She's enjoying things you couldn't provide her before.” Freya went on. “I'm so happy that she's living the princess life!” Violet couldn't believe her best friend's words. Of course, she could provide Mimi with those things.She just didn't want to spoil her too much.“Don't tell me you've started admiring him?” Sh

…At Metro City. ‘She’s awake!’As the heartbeat monitor changed rhythm, his own heartbeat became irregular. Sitting in the chair beside the bed, Asher tapped his feet anxiously.He waited for her to open her eyes.He waited to confirm his suspicion.Despite the bandage on her forehead, concealing half of her face, the resemblance was undeniable.It was so striking that he believed she was…“Violet.”Asher called out the moment she opened her eyes.Fluttering her eyelids, she squinted to adjust her eyes to the light.“Oh… where am I?” She let out a pained murmur, reaching up to touch her head,But then she winced. Her arm was broken. It was going to take at least two weeks before the fracture healed.“Violet…” Asher called out again. Those eyes. He could never mistake them.Those were his Violet's eyes. She stared at him, blinking, her eyes narrowing a bit. For a second, she didn't speak as if thrown into shock.Her expression was pale and she winced once more. “W- Who are you

Would Becca seek her forgiveness?Violet doubted that.Besides, she wasn't sure if she would be able to forgive her.Violet was only here to fulfill one mission to get Clyde to sign the divorce papers.Never had she expected to fall back into the miserable life she'd once lived. It was none other’s fault except Clyde's. If he'd agreed that they moved back to the Villa, all of this wouldn't have happened. He said it was because of his grandfather.Yet, Grandpa Luke had been okay with them living in the Villa before. As the old man was still here, it was a great opportunity to ask him by herself. “She doesn't have to, Grandpa,” Violet replied. She didn't need Becca to ask for her apology anyway. “All I want is that we return to the Villa. Clyde and I… we've spent quite some days here already.”Grandpa Luke's sullen expression turned gloomier.He obviously didn't appear pleased by her request.Violet could sense Clyde’s displeasure too from the tensed look on his face.“You really

…Finally, Violet could breathe in the fresh air.After a whole week of torture, she would be finally free and out of this place.Although the mansion was vast, it was so suffocating that she felt as if she was in a dungeon.Every day was spent in anticipation of the day they would finally leave this place. “Mummy!” As Violet dragged her luggage out of the bedroom, Mimi rushed to her in the hallway. The little girl looked so sad, her eyes shining with tears. “Do we have to go away? I'll miss Grandma, Grandpa, and Greatgrandpa. I'll miss Ava and Daddy too, please don't take me from my Daddy.”“We'll just move to a new house, Baby…” Violet ruffled her hair. “And of course, your Daddy and Ava are coming with us. We won't be very far, we'll be visiting here often.”“Oh…” Mimi nodded in realization.“The Villa is closer to your school also…” Violet added. “So you won't be late to school.”“That's great, Mummy. Since Daddy's coming with us, it's no biggie.” Mimi wiped the tears in her ey
